Presentation for Meeting June 25th / 26th 2015



This first draft of the Curriculum is based on the occupation, recognized in Germany:

Skilled Metal Worker specialised in Skilled Metal Worker specialised in Construction and Installation TechnologyConstruction and Installation Technology

(See Certificate supplement -revised April 2013)(See Certificate supplement -revised April 2013)

It describes in this state the learning outcomes, to be assessed in a final exam and the framework of the assessment


This occupation contains four sub-profiles:Construction technology Installation technologyChipping technologyWire and transformation technology

They have some common learning outcomes, others are specialisations for the profile

Full-time apprenticeship takes 2 years, alternate in enterprise (~2/3) and in vocational school (~1/3)


Chapter A: Learning outcomes for occupational profile in general

Construction of componentsMaintenance of operating resourceControl technologyPut, Secure and transportMounting and removal of component and modules


Chapter B: Learning outcomes for occupational profile Installation technology

Planning and preparation of mounting and removal processes

Create bondsSupervision and optimising

mounting and removal processes


Chapter C: Learning outcomes for occupational profile Construction technology

Mounting and removal of metal constructionsSeparating and transforming Joining modulesTreatment and protection of surfaces


Chapter D: Transversal learning outcomes for theoccupational profile skilled metal worker

Apprenticeship, Labour law, collective bargaining lawOrganisation and hierarchy of the companySafety and health in the workplaceEnvironment protectionConduct quality assurance In-company and technical communicationPlanning and executing tasks


Assessment of achieved learning outcomes:Execute an assembly order by producing a specimen:

The examinee has to show that he/she is able to ..understand the kind and the mode of an order, to research for

information to execute and to realize the order … choose the way of treatment, to produce modules in manual

or mechanical way, considering safety and health in the workplace and environmental aspects

… mount assemblies appropriately, considering the sequence of elements, to adjust, to fix and to secure

… adjust the performance of the assembly … choose and to use testing procedures and equipment, check

utilisability of equipment, to assess and to record the result


Assessment of achieved learning outcomes:Analysis of the order and the function : (5)

The examinee has to show that he/she is able to …analyse an order for manufacturing and mounting …to check and to complete the correctness and completeness the

technical documents … to plan the steps of manufacturing and mounting, taking into

account safety and health in the workplace and environmental aspects … to operate following the technical regulations, plans and the rules

and inspection requirements … to explain the correct mounting of the assembly concerning

situation, function and sequence of the particles … deliver an assembly and to explain the function … determine process and parameter, measures of inspection and

inspection equipment


Assessment of achieved learning outcomes:Production and mounting methods: (6)

The examinee has to show that he/she is able to …assess and to choose methods for manufacturing, mounting

and joining when producing components and assemblies, taking into account technical, economical and ecological aspects

… identify and calculate the specific values for manufacturing and mounting

… choose raw material and supplies appropriate to the order … plan the workflow and to allocate tools and machines



Examination will be done like described in the example

Environment protection in metalworking companies

Basics of general “green skills” in all metalworking sectors, examples from a handbook for vocational training:

Jörg Bartenschlager et.al., Fachkunde Metall, ISBN 987-3-8085-1157-2© Verlag Europa Lehrmittel, 2013


Disposal in chipping production

Extraction by suction; separation; de-oiling; reprocessing; depolluting13


Cleaning of polluted components

Cleaning with hot steam and tensides, cleaning suds in a purification plant14


Powder coating in a tunnel machine

Avoiding resolvants by varnishing with powder – recycling of remains15


Clean-up of con-taminated Air

Cleening outgoing air with filter systems; deposit coarse particles16


Purification plant for wastewater

Purification in a multistage process; minimize toxic waste

17


Use of Energy and environmental burden when producing raw material

RecyclingProduction

Energy consumption to produce 1t


Training-MethodsMethods will be chosen appropriate to the apprentices competences, the trainers methodological aptitude and the situation

•“Teaching in four steps” – follows the idea of the traditional “masters teaching”•Learning by performing real customers orders•“Guided instruction by text” – a method following the paradigm of “complete action (6 Steps)” and gives more and ore autonomy to the apprentice

… and others


Next draft version can be done, if some more questions are clarified:

Which will be the learning outcomes we agree on to aim at?How will the apprentice’s competences be assessed before they start the course?How far can we support the participating companies in their pedagogical activity… more
